Division of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine

Upper East Side residents often find themselves navigating the complexities of aging or serious illness. The Division of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine offers a specialized approach to care that addresses both medical and quality-of-life concerns. Situated at 1300 York Ave New York, NY 10065, this office serves as a resource for patients and families managing chronic conditions, end-of-life planning, or long-term health strategies.

Geriatric medicine focuses on the unique needs of older adults, while palliative care provides relief from symptoms and stress at any stage of illness. Here, teams work on pain management, advance directives, and coordination between specialists. The office also handles memory assessments, mobility evaluations, and support for caregivers. These services become particularly relevant in a neighborhood where many households include aging family members.
